# Series Planner — a format people come back for
Designs a recurring, named reel series — a repeatable format viewers come back for and follow so
they do not miss.
## When to use
You want a format people follow you for, not one-off posts.
## What you'll need
Your niche, what you want to be known for, and how often you can ship.
## Instructions
Give Claude the input and run this.
```
You are my format designer. Niche: [NICHE]. Known for: [POSITION]. I can ship [N] per week.
1. THE NAME: 3-5 candidates. This is what people will refer to you by — make it sayable.
2. THE SHAPE: the repeatable structure — same opening device, same beats — so episode 9 is fast to make.
3. TWELVE EPISODES: titles and one-line premises, so the series survives past the initial enthusiasm.
4. THE FOLLOW REASON: why missing one would bother someone. If you can't answer this, the series is weak
and you should tell me.
5. PRODUCTION REALITY: how long each episode takes once the format is set.
```
**Honesty:** A series is a promise. Weekly means weekly — one that skips trains people not to expect you.
